I never comment, but I just wanted to say thank you for actually comparing an ALR projection screen with a flat white wall. You are like the only person on RUclips who does this in detail!
@@NexiTech have you looked into "CLR" screens? I'm wondering if the following statement is true, or is it just marketing/ snake oil.. to take your money Quote "Regular ALR will not work with a UST projector. ALR is retro reflective and reflects light back to the source, so all the brightness is going back towards the UST projector's lens nowhere near your eyes. CLR (ALR for UST) is meant to reflect light from below, straight out toward the viewer, and reject light from the ceiling (ceiling light rejection) and from the sides and even from straight on a bit."
This is honestly the best projector setup I have ever seen, the projector image perfectly matches the screen and it really looks like a TV and it's amazing how bright it stays even with the lights on.
fantastic content. has helped me decide on which projector to get. I was leaning more towards a short throw projector and stumbled upon a review that said an alr screen is needed. your videos pretty much proved that the difference is minimal in a dark room, which was my intent with a theater room. I have a set up where a 55 TV is wall mounted on the wall with a pull down projector screen that will only be used on movie nights with the kids. thanks so much 🙏
This video is useless, and you can check at 6:28 that he’s doing a false screen comparison by color grading both video pictures. Watch the wall itself “affected” by the different screen, lol. How is that possible? The picture has been color graded for the screen to look better.
Hello there, thanks for your review.... one of your links point out to a BlitzWolf® BW-VS3 ALR screen. How is that ? looks very similar, but not sure if is the same screen. Could you help me out ?
Depending of where you live in the US or outside of US I place the screens with the same or similar preformanse screens that are available. All screens in the links have the same type of UST ALR horisontal micro lines pattern fabric which have the same or very similar preformanse.
well i live in U.S.A waiting for NEXT Generation of VAVA short throw laser Projector to buy as TV for my living room & my idea of screen size i want is between 120-135" screen, so 100" is small for me!
Picture quality is excellent in Ultra Hi Res 4K. Has a small remote that accesses all the functions. I'm projecting a 120" inch screen at approximately 10" inches from the back of the projector to the wall.
hi. I have a question. I have Optoma HD29HE assembled on the ceiling (around 3,4m from wall). Will this screen work good, or You would recommend something more appropriate.
very informative, practical and less marketing review, specially the w/o screen part which I find useful in general and not only for these brands, thanks
On mine Z5500 control pod Back light went bad, I opened it solder again every contact for LCD and it works for a few months fine and then back light died completely. I will probably change the LCD or get the similar led diodes at some point in the future. Other than that my z5500 works like a charm. Crystal clean sound and awesome ground-shaking bass. I love it! P.S. I have one more Z5500 in the storage room still in the original box :) I brought it many years ago as a back up.
Can you help me Please how to check, where is top of the screen, and where is bottom, i’m using it for half year but i think, maybe i need to reinstall it 😅
There are a few ways that you can tell which is the top and bottom of the projector screen. One way is to look at the screen from the side. If the top of the screen is closer to you, then that is the top of the screen. Another way is to look at the screen from the front. If the top of the screen is closer to you, then that is the top of the screen.
Hey, I hope you've still got the same setup and can tell me a measurement. I've used an online calculator and it's saying for me to get an 80" screen size, the throw distance would be 41cm. I'm unsure if that is to the unit itself, or to the projection output. For context, I want to mount this on a shelf on the wall. The depth of unit is 290mm. So if its to the units total depth, would I need 410mm +290mm, =700mm? But if it's(the 410mmm) to the output on the unit, by the looks, the shelf would only need to be ~500mm deep. Could you please take a measurement as if yours was mounted on a shelf, what would be the total(minimum) depth needed? I can scale down the measure to 80" from there. I live in a tiny house so space to the cm is vital. Sorry for mixed units of measure, happy to convert them all to imperial if that helps. Thank you !
Sorry my friend I don't have the same setup I have 120 inch screen with motorised cabinet and different projector. Check my last videos. But I do believe that I have answered to your questions on some of the comments in this video or in other projector related videos. Also I will tell you that I would not go under 100 inch for the projector screen. 80 inch is not that big and you can found 80 inch TV nowadays for reasonable price so I would choose a TV instead if we talk about 80 inch screen size.
Regarding the "all lights off" scenario: There are two main differences: One is a pro and the other is a con. Pro: Firstly you get better contrast due to 1. Less ambient light, since most projector light is directed to the viewer and not the ceiling 2. The screen is grey. Naturally, black will appear a bit darker... Everything is a bit darker... Con: Since the screen is gray, white balance is slightly off. Everything will be darker than intended. You will never get pure white. If the projector is REALLY bright, you'll get close, but never pure white. Regarding any other lighting scenario, this screen's PROs far outweigh its one and only CON. However, if you are going to be watching the screen in a dark room anyway (because you want to have the best image quality possible at all times), better get a white screen... If you own an ultra short throw projector, search for a white ALR screen (basically one that directs light towards you and not the ceiling...) That's my opinion anyway... Although backed by any scientific documentation you can think of xD
Do it come with everything like a remote and stuff this is a very nice video you don’t d great thank you so much for your time you put in this and showing us This this is very nice
Great stuff you have on the channel! Is the ALR screen meant for UST projectors only? Should I be using the regular white screen if I am only using a long throw projector? Is there any benefit if I use the ALR screen for a long throw project? Appreciate your advice. Thank you.
Thank you! This ALR screen is designed only for UST laser projector and it have fabric with horizontal micro lines pattern, but if you need ALR screen for regular long throw projector you can order ALR scren with the mesh structure fabric which works good with standard long throw projectors.
@@atomictrousers2998 Sure! VAVA is in fact brighter and it is awesome projector but for some reason VAVA 4K Projector disappeared from Amazon Website together with all customers reviews which I found to be very strange. It's like it never existed on Amazon which I'm trying to investigate what happened. Until then you might want to go with the Xiaomi 4k or some other option as I don't like the fact that some product can only be purchased from manufacturer website where they control all the reviews and information.
I have one of those under $300 Chinese led 1080p projectors and the blacks are more greyish in color and is very noticeable when playing games like Batman Arkham Knight etc. Would a grey screen be the way to go?
Thanks for the great review. Do you happen to have any suggestions for my situation? I am getting my first UST soon (Formovie Theater) and also will be moving in the next couple months. I was hoping a "foldable" white regular 1.1 gain screen could hold me over and them get a real ALR screen, but will the regular screen be terrible until I can? Thanks for any advice you or others may have 😀.
Hi Nexi! Thanks for your videos, specially this one, it's an awesome review! Do you know any other place/brand where we could go a similar screen for similar price? Since right now it's out of stock. Thanks!
I have a different question. It is about sound setup in conjunction with the VAVA projector. Did you connect the Logitech Z5500 directly to the VAVA or a receiver? And are you using the speaker in the vava in this setup? Is this even possible?
Z5500 is connected to the VAVA projector over the optical cable. And yes you can choose speaker output to be internal speaker, optical output, 3.5mm stereo, HDMI or over Bluetooth.
hello I would like to buy a short laser projector I was wondering which sheet should I choose between a 100 or 120 inch one? taking into account that the distance between the sofa and the screen is 3.20 meters. thank you
Hi Mirko! Both XY-screen and Fengmi have very similar ALR performance as both have horisontal micro lines pattern surface in the screen fabric. I prefer more FENGMI projecting screen because it's less expensive and it has a better design screen frame and more modern look.
Awesome review and great comparison shots! I seem to remember you’re in Sweden, right? Do you know if there are any retails here that have it? I’ve never heard of Banggood before but it looks very Wish-like. Is it really a decent source? Thanks!
Hi Daniel, Thanks man I appreciate it and am glad that you liked my video. Sure Banggood is reliable and decent source. I'm ordering from them for many years now. Never had any issues with it. You are also from Sweden? Which town? If you don't mind. Maybe we can work something out.
@@NexiTech hey, thanks for getting back to me, I really appreciate it! Will definitely consider Banggood then! I’m debating so many things with myself, whether to go with a 77” LG C10 or a short-throw. I’m also kinda not wanting my living room to look like a “man cave” so I still don’t know how far I can go 😅 My viewing distance is only 3m (a fairly small apartment) so if I go with a projector, I’m thinking I won’t really be able to enjoy the full benefits, as I’d probably go with about 90” or so. Price-wise, the C10 (which is an awesome tv, and I do love oled, have a 55” C9 currently) costs about 30k SEK now, which is more or less the same I would spend on a projector with a nice projector screen. I’m always overthinking these things way too much 😅 I’m in Stockholm btw :)
No problem man! Well my friend you have to decide for yourself but let me tell you that In my old place I had pretty small living room as well, with around 3m watching distance and 100 inch projector screen was a blast. It filled up the whole wall and it was very cool. Back then I had Xiaomi Mi 4K laser projector and in a smaller room was really good enough. Of course the projector can't beat the TV in terms of brightness and contrast in a daylight but it does feel way superior in image quality in dark and in lower light condition in my opinion for numerous reasons, also I like the fact that with the projector you can go much bigger then 100" up to 150inch or more when ever you want. I like that there is no reflection from windows or mirrors on the projector screen like from a TV, the image on a projector screen feels much easier on my eyes with no fatigue compare to TV screen. With the projector you watch the image that are reflected from projector screen like your eyes see the image/light that reflects from the objects in real life. The projector screen also have no hot-spots or uneven backlight or light bleeding that many large size TV-s suffers from and I also like how I can switch off image on a projector whenever I want and just listen the music on RUclips or on other apps while on TV, screen must to be ON all the time. Also the price, for example you can go with Xiaomi 4k 1S UST projector(latest model) and with this 100" ALR screen, that's around 20k which is pretty good deal actually and compared to 100 inch TV which cost a fortune. I'm sure you will be satisfied with it but again that's just my thoughts and my opinion my friend no hard feelings :)
@@NexiTech thanks man! I agree with all of your points regarding the projector pros, but it does come with some additional things that need to be worked out - like the placement of my center speaker, being able to dim the room properly (despite the negative screen, I’d of course always prefer a dark room) etc. Lots to think about 😅
Thanks for the video, very informative. I was actually looking at that screen on Aliexpress then I found your video. I was really wondering what is the difference between this one and another screen by the same manufacturer but like 200$ less (T prism instead of Black Crustal like this one, while still ALR screen.
Hey Nexi, thanks for another great content! I really like your videos, because they are so naturally and without any frills...:) I'm really interested into buying an alr screen in the upcoming future. Could you tell if there is a noticeably difference between the vividstorm and the fengmi in relation to image quality? kind regards Phil
Hi Philip, Thanks man! I didn't want to replay to your comment before I did some testing first. I rolled down Vividstorm ALR screen over the Fengmi scren around half way and I play some 4K samples and full screen Image test in different colors like White, Black, Red, Green,Blue and I did testing with and without lights. Both screens perform pretty much identical and I can't tell them apart. Thank you so much for your kind words and your support my friend! People like you give me positive energy and strength to stay on RUclips and continue making more videos. I couldn't do this without you guys! King regards Nexi
Does the screen fabric have a clear indication of which way up it should go? A UST screen fabric should be directional so will look very different if upside down.
Don't you find the sound bouncing about like crazy with those ceramic tiles on the floor? They look very nice and all, but really not the thing for a cinema room, I'd have thought. Or is this a wife-pleasing ploy? Oh, and nice review as always.
Thanks man! Well these tiles are granite(stone) tiles and under them is a concrete floor with underfloor heating and on other side of this room under the stairs we have a sump pump installed under the floor(house french drain) so tiles was only logical and practical option. In comparison with laminate floor which is terrible for acoustic/sound room, these tiles are light-year better option. For example just drop a tiny screw on laminate floor and you will hear it :) Now in terms of sound/echo/bounce this room is not bad at all and we have very small echo in it. I believe that's because numerous of reasons like a thin wood ceiling with very thick insulation, because of that huge 4.5m long sofa on the opposite side of the speakers, picture on the wall, The fact that projector screen covers most of the front wall so the sound don't have many clear walls to bounce off. Also this entire room is in basement under ground so I believe that gives walls extra dampening effects. But that's just my thoughts :)
You were able to move projector to get a picture partially presented on the wall while another part is on the screen. Please do it in the future test videos. Thank you!
You are not satisfied with the image comparison? If I did it in your way I would not be able to show full picture half/half as there is not space on the wall or on the projector cabinet. Also the picture on the wall would be out of focus comparing to the image on the screen and image on the wall would be distorted/different size compared to image on the screen. That image comparison would look really poor and not professional at all.
@@NexiTech The image comparison was really good, clearly showed the difference and the 'scrolling' effect switching between the screen and the wall also helped to highlight the difference. You showed the exact comparision that b1g32tfrt is wanting except the way they are suggesting doing it does not make any sense. You definetly showed the comparision in the best way
Very nice setup (as always). But the power outlet bugs me 😅 (sorry). How about replacing it with something more square and white? A ELKO Plus? Or something like that... Anyway. Thanks for the vid 👍🏻
It bugs me too ;) Problem is that house is quite old and it has old power outlet standard. I have brought few pcs of new power outlet cover and it doesn't fit so It seems that I need to dig in the concrete wall to replace complete outlet. Or I might just paint cover in the white :) Got to try out that ELKO Plus you suggested, I like how it looks. Glad you like my video. Thanks for your comment mate! :)
hey man! really nice detailed videos, i just found out about you and i am going to move and wanted to get into the short projectors. my question would be what the latencies are with gaming consoles? is there a big lag nowadays with projectors? if you could help me out I'd really appreciate it!
Hi man! Thank you. I'm glad that you liked my video. Well let me tell you that lag is not bad at all. I have a PS4 Pro and the controller is pretty responsive. I'm casual gamer and so far I try out a few games, NFS Payback, Hitmen, Far cry 4, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, and a few free demo FPS games(don't know the names right now I will check it later and edit the comment). Anyway, I got to tell you that gaming on this projector and ps4 pro is very cool experiance! Huge screen in 4K with awesome graphic... It's just wow! Games look fantastic and the gameplay experience is very nice. At first I did not noticed any high input lag so I played for a few hours and then I took my 27 inch monitor(4ms) and do a comparison between projector and the monitor. First I played for a 10 minutes on the monitor then I switch back to the projector and again. I did felt a tiny bit of lag on the projector compared to the monitor at first but then brain adjust to it and I played normaly again, so for casual games and single player games, input lag is not that big of a deal in my opinion. Of course am not a hard core gamer on the console controler and for me playing FPS games(shooting and aiming) on any console controller is really hard and slow compare to the mouse and keyboard( I'm PC gamer). Of course I wil test out more games and in future I will make a seprate video review only about gaming on this projector.
@@NexiTech thanks for the quick response! i am more into single player stuff so that should do just fine but none than less i can't wait for tht video!
I never comment, but I just wanted to say thank you for actually comparing an ALR projection screen with a flat white wall. You are like the only person on RUclips who does this in detail!

8:56. Once you go with a screen this size, there is no going back to Regular 65 inch tv or less. Only bigger 8
you done clear my all doubts. i alway thinking whiter screen is best. but watching your video i can understand what the different
Which TV cabinet is that? It looks nice and low. Perfect for UST projector. I would like to get that one as well
The Way you explained everything in details was mind blowing
Loved your comparisons! Extremely high quality with screen and no screen.

Thank you i been looking for a video like this
i have the z5500, it's a beast, original control pod went bad so using sub with custom amps with other setups.

Excellent video! The BlitzWolf and Fengmi has the same quality? Thanks
The review I was waiting for! It Will pair well with my Fengmi Cinema 4k projector. Thanks!!!
Hope you enjoy it!
Great video.
Do you know if they also provide a 120" screen? If not, any optional recomandations in same price category?
@Nexi Tech I'm presuming that the comment above is from someone elses account?
Just curious what kind of base that is under the screen? Looks nice, and large enough for projector and possibly speakers.
Great video Nexi, thanks. The screen makes a big difference.
Hi Ron my friend! Glad you like my video :) Yeah the screen does makes a huge difference. Wish you a great day man.
Thanks for the comparison , especially static camera angle in dark/light up env
Wowww! Amazing! You have right..there us no way to go back to TVs.. specially for 3D
Great info video! Really helps me out. TY!
Hi.. thanks for the informative video.. need to know where the projector placed ! and about how far ! Kindly share.
How is the viewing angle? AFAIK using a frensel screen the optimal viewing angle is quite narrow.
Great Video!!!!
Can u tell what is the distance from the screen to your sofa?
nice video. especially the side by side comparison is very helpful

@@NexiTech hey, thanks for getting back to me, I really appreciate it! Will definitely consider Banggood then!
I’m debating so many things with myself, whether to go with a 77” LG C10 or a short-throw. I’m also kinda not wanting my living room to look like a “man cave” so I still don’t know how far I can go 😅
My viewing distance is only 3m (a fairly small apartment) so if I go with a projector, I’m thinking I won’t really be able to enjoy the full benefits, as I’d probably go with about 90” or so.
Price-wise, the C10 (which is an awesome tv, and I do love oled, have a 55” C9 currently) costs about 30k SEK now, which is more or less the same I would spend on a projector with a nice projector screen.
I’m always overthinking these things way too much 😅 I’m in Stockholm btw :)
No problem man! Well my friend you have to decide for yourself but let me tell you that In my old place I had pretty small living room as well, with around 3m watching distance and 100 inch projector screen was a blast. It filled up the whole wall and it was very cool. Back then I had Xiaomi Mi 4K laser projector and in a smaller room was really good enough. Of course the projector can't beat the TV in terms of brightness and contrast in a daylight but it does feel way superior in image quality in dark and in lower light condition in my opinion for numerous reasons, also I like the fact that with the projector you can go much bigger then 100" up to 150inch or more when ever you want. I like that there is no reflection from windows or mirrors on the projector screen like from a TV, the image on a projector screen feels much easier on my eyes with no fatigue compare to TV screen. With the projector you watch the image that are reflected from projector screen like your eyes see the image/light that reflects from the objects in real life. The projector screen also have no hot-spots or uneven backlight or light bleeding that many large size TV-s suffers from and I also like how I can switch off image on a projector whenever I want and just listen the music on RUclips or on other apps while on TV, screen must to be ON all the time. Also the price, for example you can go with Xiaomi 4k 1S UST projector(latest model) and with this 100" ALR screen, that's around 20k which is pretty good deal actually and compared to 100 inch TV which cost a fortune. I'm sure you will be satisfied with it but again that's just my thoughts and my opinion my friend no hard feelings :)
@@NexiTech thanks man! I agree with all of your points regarding the projector pros, but it does come with some additional things that need to be worked out - like the placement of my center speaker, being able to dim the room properly (despite the negative screen, I’d of course always prefer a dark room) etc.
Lots to think about 😅
Thanks for the video, very informative. I was actually looking at that screen on Aliexpress then I found your video. I was really wondering what is the difference between this one and another screen by the same manufacturer but like 200$ less (T prism instead of Black Crustal like this one, while still ALR screen.
Nice review
Thank you
thanx for your efforts man 👍
I don't have a palm tree, so how am I supposed to roll out the fabric??
Good point :D
Hello, my friend!great video, thanks!what is the name of the program on the phone for translating languages through the camera?
Hi Denis. Thank you. The program is Google translate app for Android available on playstore.
Hey Nexi, thanks for another great content!
I really like your videos, because they are so naturally and without any frills...:)
I'm really interested into buying an alr screen in the upcoming future.
Could you tell if there is a noticeably difference between the vividstorm and the fengmi in relation to image quality?
kind regards
Phil
Hi Philip, Thanks man! I didn't want to replay to your comment before I did some testing first. I rolled down Vividstorm ALR screen over the Fengmi scren around half way and I play some 4K samples and full screen Image test in different colors like White, Black, Red, Green,Blue and I did testing with and without lights. Both screens perform pretty much identical and I can't tell them apart.
Thank you so much for your kind words and your support my friend! People like you give me positive energy and strength to stay on RUclips and continue making more videos. I couldn't do this without you guys!
King regards
Nexi
@@NexiTech super helpful thanks again @NexiTech and Philipp for the question.
Hi mate, was going to ask this same question and can see you have already answered. Great work 👌
very good explanation ☺️ thank you
You're welcome 😊
A lot of Chinese words :P anyway this screen is fair enough and affordable, pretty good one
Says the guy with that name 😂
I wish I could get a white projector screen for Christmas in 2010
What brand/model of fabric is used for screen (it should be on sticker on back side of canvas)
Great review. Question, I have a normal/long distance projector. Does this screen only work on short throw?
Nope, this screen will not work, you need different kind of ALR screen for regular/long throw projector.
@@NexiTech oke thanks
i got this like 2 weeks ago, its an amazing screen
How much
Is it just the screen or also with the projector?
@@rajeshmallisetty6993 looks like 450? Sooooo sus lol
Perfect review. Good job!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching :)
Does the screen fabric have a clear indication of which way up it should go? A UST screen fabric should be directional so will look very different if upside down.
I got the same screen. The fabric says "top" on the back of it
Really good. Sir can u say what is your room dimensions......
Forgot to mention what projector brand and model you were using for this screen review this also important to know.
I did on 5:15 my friend.
I Love your whole Room.
Thank you!
@@NexiTech , someday invite me I will come with a Crate of Beer or Whisky. Thank you for your reply!
By the way will you help me a question or query regarding a Projector????? I already have 1 Hitachi but need your help??
Really amazing explanation.... thank you...
I'm glad you like it my friend. Thanks for your comment.
Don't you find the sound bouncing about like crazy with those ceramic tiles on the floor? They look very nice and all, but really not the thing for a cinema room, I'd have thought. Or is this a wife-pleasing ploy? Oh, and nice review as always.
Thanks man! Well these tiles are granite(stone) tiles and under them is a concrete floor with underfloor heating and on other side of this room under the stairs we have a sump pump installed under the floor(house french drain) so tiles was only logical and practical option. In comparison with laminate floor which is terrible for acoustic/sound room, these tiles are light-year better option. For example just drop a tiny screw on laminate floor and you will hear it :) Now in terms of sound/echo/bounce this room is not bad at all and we have very small echo in it. I believe that's because numerous of reasons like a thin wood ceiling with very thick insulation, because of that huge 4.5m long sofa on the opposite side of the speakers, picture on the wall, The fact that projector screen covers most of the front wall so the sound don't have many clear walls to bounce off. Also this entire room is in basement under ground so I believe that gives walls extra dampening effects. But that's just my thoughts :)
You were able to move projector to get a picture partially presented on the wall while another part is on the screen. Please do it in the future test videos. Thank you!
You are not satisfied with the image comparison? If I did it in your way I would not be able to show full picture half/half as there is not space on the wall or on the projector cabinet. Also the picture on the wall would be out of focus comparing to the image on the screen and image on the wall would be distorted/different size compared to image on the screen. That image comparison would look really poor and not professional at all.
@@NexiTech The image comparison was really good, clearly showed the difference and the 'scrolling' effect switching between the screen and the wall also helped to highlight the difference. You showed the exact comparision that b1g32tfrt is wanting except the way they are suggesting doing it does not make any sense. You definetly showed the comparision in the best way
@@NexiTech I am happy from your test. Thank you. My concern is in camera exposition settings even if it is fixed manually.
Any idea where to buy this screen for shipping to the UK?
It's a very comfortable experience.
By the way, I'm also a projector supplier.
I have many different models of projectors，we designed and manufactured it ourselves .
Thank you very much for your quality video. Very ussefull. Do you know where I can buy this project screen? Thank you
Hi Antony. I'm glad that you liked my video. You can found this screen in the link in video description. Have a great day!
Great video thanks for the good info.
Glad you like it man! Have a great day. Cheers!
Thank you for the review!
Glad you like it my friend ;)
Very nice setup (as always). But the power outlet bugs me 😅 (sorry). How about replacing it with something more square and white? A ELKO Plus? Or something like that... Anyway. Thanks for the vid 👍🏻
It bugs me too ;) Problem is that house is quite old and it has old power outlet standard. I have brought few pcs of new power outlet cover and it doesn't fit so It seems that I need to dig in the concrete wall to replace complete outlet. Or I might just paint cover in the white :) Got to try out that ELKO Plus you suggested, I like how it looks. Glad you like my video. Thanks for your comment mate! :)
a very informative video!
Thank you!
hey man! really nice detailed videos, i just found out about you and i am going to move and wanted to get into the short projectors. my question would be what the latencies are with gaming consoles? is there a big lag nowadays with projectors? if you could help me out I'd really appreciate it!
Hi man! Thank you. I'm glad that you liked my video. Well let me tell you that lag is not bad at all. I have a PS4 Pro and the controller is pretty responsive. I'm casual gamer and so far I try out a few games, NFS Payback, Hitmen, Far cry 4, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, and a few free demo FPS games(don't know the names right now I will check it later and edit the comment). Anyway, I got to tell you that gaming on this projector and ps4 pro is very cool experiance! Huge screen in 4K with awesome graphic... It's just wow! Games look fantastic and the gameplay experience is very nice. At first I did not noticed any high input lag so I played for a few hours and then I took my 27 inch monitor(4ms) and do a comparison between projector and the monitor. First I played for a 10 minutes on the monitor then I switch back to the projector and again. I did felt a tiny bit of lag on the projector compared to the monitor at first but then brain adjust to it and I played normaly again, so for casual games and single player games, input lag is not that big of a deal in my opinion. Of course am not a hard core gamer on the console controler and for me playing FPS games(shooting and aiming) on any console controller is really hard and slow compare to the mouse and keyboard( I'm PC gamer). Of course I wil test out more games and in future I will make a seprate video review only about gaming on this projector.
@@NexiTech thanks for the quick response! i am more into single player stuff so that should do just fine but none than less i can't wait for tht video!
